Fortress preschool is a full-time, licensed preschool which provides creative play, early literacy training, and school readiness for children ages 18 months-4 years. Children enrolled in fortress preschool participate in both teacher and child-directed activities, receive breakfast and lunch and enjoy both outside and inside play.
Fortress summer is a daily bible-focused program which keeps children engaged in a fun, safe environment while encouraging academic and spiritual growth. It employs the gifts and resources of visiting youth mission groups from across the country.
Lead (learn, engage, achieve, discipline), formally equip, is the parent engagement program. Fortress does not charge for its programs instead requires twelve hours of engagement from each family. The lead program offers parenting classes, services and family events designed to strengthen the family and encourage engagements.
